Not exactly what would call a valid citation there. |
Of course you didn't "pinpoint" grad rates of top universities, because you can't find any evidence. The graduation rate of students of color is mixed in consistently, and especially in the stupid links your provided, with first gen, and the top reason for not graduating is cost. You left that little piece out of your weak attempt to defend your disgusting racism. You seem to accept that students of color who are accepted to at least the top colleges graduate because they were "top caliber" in the first place, but then still need to say they require extra supports--simply because they're Black. I know you never will, but you seriously need to check yourself. Be honest, did you even go to college yourself? |
Yes there are still URM hooks, just not as explicit. You’ve probably known that top stats alone isn’t enough to get others into top colleges. |
This is the problem with DEI. It becomes a double edged sword. |
URM and decent stats get the Ivy. |
TO resulted in the explosion in the number of applicants. The numbers have overwhelmed admissions offices. How can you think going back to test-required won’t help bring the numbers back down? They do want to find diamonds in the rough, as it were, who have 1400s in under resourced areas and are top of their class. But it should help applicants, parents and advisors help kids who are not tippy-top in their particular pool focus their attention on more realistic options and not put in the time on super long-shot applications. |
Good. The cultural race to the bottom is getting old |
Only for bigots who see recruitment as favoritism. |
Shame on you. |
Wasn’t her entire dissent in the aff action reversal based on her personal “lived experience” with not one cited precedent? |
TO hasn’t kept ANYONE from applying these past few yrs - applications have exploded at the top 50 schools. It’s ridiculous. |
So let them do that and we will see what the average test scores are going forward. It was the hiding of low test scores by TO applicants that felt so grossly unfair. |
Not everyone gets to go Ivy. Mediocres who can’t spell “racist” but hurl it about endlessly should look elsewhere. Deal with it. |
And NP here who also believes that life isn’t fair and that there really is a section of the general population who is more intelligent and intellectually capable than the vast majority of people in this world. We are not all equal in ability! We should have equal opportunity to show our abilities, but that does not mean all are capable of the same things. Such is life. And thank god for that otherwise all the important scientific breakthroughs and amazing novels and such would never have been found or written, etc! You think that the COVID vac was developed by a people who got a 1300 on the SAT? Probably not. |
+1 so surprising, right?! |
